Amendment10

media type="custom" key="3374588" || 1."With respect to the two words 'general welfare,' I have always regarded them as qualified by the detail of powers connected with them. To take them in a literal and unlimited sense would be a metamorphosis of the Constitution into a character which there is a host of proofs was not contemplated by its creators."--James Madison, speaking of the "General Welfare" clause in the U.S. Constitution (Article 1, Section 8)
 * Amendment 10 ||  ||

2."Congress has not unlimited powers to provide for the general welfare, but only those specifically enumerated."--Thomas Jefferson

3."Giving money and power to the government is like giving car keys and whiskey to teenage boys." --P.[|.jpg]J. O'Rourke ||  ||   || The Tenth Amendment, which makes explicit the idea that the federal government is limited only to the powers granted in the Constitution is generally recognized to be a [|truism]. In //[|United States v. Sprague]// ([|1931]) the [|Supreme Court] noted that the amendment "added nothing to the [Constitution] as originally ratified." From time to time states and local governments have attempted to assert exemption from various federal regulations, especially in the areas of labor and environmental controls, using the Tenth Amendment as a basis for their claim. An often-repeated quote, from //[|United States v. Darby]//, 312 U.S. 100, 124 (1941), reads as follows: The amendment states but a truism that all is retained which has not been surrendered. There is nothing in the history of its adoption to suggest that it was more than declaratory of the relationship between the national and state governments as it had been established by the Constitution before the amendment or that its purpose was other than to allay fears that the new national government might seek to exercise powers not granted, and that the states might not be able to exercise fully their reserved powers. || Embedded Presentations, Websites || media type="custom" key="3114004" ||

 * Court cases about this amendment || The Tenth Amendment is similar to an earlier provision of the [|Articles of Confederation]: "Each state retains its sovereignty, freedom, and independence, and every power, jurisdiction, and right, which is not by this Confederation expressly delegated to the United States, in Congress assembled."[|[][|1][|]] After the Constitution was ratified, some wanted to add a similar amendment limiting the [|federal government] to powers "expressly" delegated, which would have denied [|implied powers].[|[][|2][|]] However, the word "expressly" ultimately did not appear in the Tenth Amendment as ratified, and therefore the Tenth Amendment did not amend the [|Necessary and Proper Clause].
